Re: FLASH: does Protect from Import work?

Hi Karin,

No


> if they do does the movie work?

Yes


> Someone has downloaded one of my swf's. 

That will happen a lot


Protect from import prevents the swf file from being imported into the

Flash editor, but this is easily bypassed. The good news is that

extracting enough info from your swf file to modify your movie is uually

quite difficult.
